Usage notes
- It is standard US English to raise children, and this usage has become common in all kinds of English since the 1700s. Until fairly recently, however, US teachers taught the traditional rule that one should raise crops and animals, but rear children, despite the fact that this contradicted general usage. It is therefore not surprising that some people still prefer to rear children and that this is considered correct but formal in US English. It is widespread in UK English and not considered formal.
- It is generally considered incorrect to say rear crops or (adult) animals in US English, but this expression is common in UK English.

- (to cause to rise): lift
